Episode 8: Are You OK?

Every five days, a Clackamas County resident commits suicide. This summer, a Clackamas County group set out to confront the public health issue of suicide in a unique way: through art and storytelling. Hip hop artist and activist Mic Crenshaw tells us about his work. Also, the guys catch up on their Soapbox ballot measure series with 104, which would require greater cooperation from legislators on revenue-raising proposals, and 105, which would end Oregon’s status as a sanctuary state for undocumented immigrants.

Canbyites watched with interest as the new Dahlia building took shape as one of the new anchors of downtown Canby.

Episode 6: Don't Hate; Mediate!

You don't have to listen to the town's best news podcast to know that the current state of political discourse in our state and nation is...not great. In today's show, we sit down with mediator Linda Scher, of Better Angels, to discuss ways to communicate across the divide, and why it's important. We then put those guidelines to good use as we tackle Oregon Measure 103, the grocery tax ban, which is the first time the guys disagree. In history, we discuss the time an incensed Canby mother tried to ban Santa from the local library. All this, and more, on the Canby Now Podcast!

Episode 5: Ghosts of Libraries Past

It’s all about the library in this episode of the Canby Now Podcast. We take a look at the fascinating history of library services in town, which, more often than not, has been led by the ladies, like the Canby Women’s Civic Club and longtime librarian Ora Lee Cattley. Then, we visit the former library on Holly Street with the Canby Economic Development director Jamie Stickel, where she tells about the city’s hopes and dreams for the downtown destination. We wrap with the first of our Soapbox series looking at the statewide ballot measures in the upcoming midterm election.
